New-found blog!

I have found a very fun blog. http://peaceloveread-lily.blogspot.com/.
A fellow bookworm and Rick Riordan fan! Yes!!! ;) I wish I could follow her but alas, since this is my mom's account, I cannot. So I simply added her to my blog list in hopes of some new reads!

A blonde moment

Starring John and Betsey Karako

Green Geckos, SWAT, and a hot dog or two

Well, it's May, and most of you know what that means! Softball season is officially here! Usually it's just me in the softball world, but this year Suzy is sporting a glove and cleats! My team, the SWAT team, (Softball With AdiTtude) is completely clothed in black and can be very intimidating. Suzy's team, the Green Geckos, is, green! My favorite part of their uniform is their black and white checkered socks. :)
As for the games, SWAT had a double header on May 13th. FRIDAY the 13th. Scaaaarrryyy... Well, it only turned out to be bad luck for the other teams because we smoked 'em!! We had another double header the following week on Thursday, but we only won one of those. Win some lose some I always say.
Then came the Green Geckos!! Their first game was on Wednesday, which they tied with the yellow team, 5-5. Then they had another game yesterday, and they won, 15-nothin!! I say it's the socks.

A hot dog at the ballpark. (personally I would go with popcorn...) 

Ah, yes. The should-I-go-or-not look. Classic.

Running in to score for the Green Geckos!

Getting teased by the umpire. Being a pitcher has it's moments.

On deck with her lucky bat.

During her first game we had about ten minutes of rain. This is what came after.

Dad, wearing the SWAT team shirt in the cockpit. Now to get him a Green Geckos visor and he'll be set.

Random Thought For The Day

Phineas and Ferb!
Phineas and Ferb are stepbrothers who want to make everyday an unusual day with their crazy contraptions. Every day Phineas tells his brother; "I know what we're gonna do today!"

While Candace, their older sister, tries to bust them in every way possible.

And their pet platypus is a secret agent who battles the evil Dr. Doofinsmertz.

In one episode, he gets his brain switched with Candace, therefore;

All the while making this the wackiest TV show ever!



John. 'Nuff said.

Today's blog post is about my brother, John! I think he deserves some blog time because he is the only boy in the house, and lately, he has come up with the wackiest things.
For instance, yesterday John decided that he wanted to be a stunt double. Therefore resulting in jumps off the couch, the top of his bunk-bed, somersaults, and other things like that.

He also has become interested in weapons, and will find anything that looks like gun, knife, sword, or bazooka and store them in his personal collection. Nerf Guns are very rare in the Karako household. (espesially since John lost all of the bullets)

This is one of my favorite photos. Look in the background and you will see.

And what would John be without Legos? Give him Legos and he will make the coolest things out of them. One time he made an airport with a working elevator. The picture above is one of his recent creations.

Famous quotes from John:

(when offered a piece of candy) "No thanks, I'd rather have a brother."

(while in the car listening to some music)

Me: "That sounds like Oprah."

Betsey: "You don't know what Oprah sounds like."

John: "Opra is a play performed in song."
